Good question. I was going to ask the same.

this is probably an irrelevent/annoying question, but anyway...are the gigs in this collection complete with Fish's between-song monologues, or have the editing monsters done away with them?

in my opinion, said monologues are an integral part of the Fish/Marillion gig experience!

i'll still buy 'em, but will protest loudly (from the comfort of my armchair ;D )

At gigs after Nov 17th, definitely. Before then, possibly.

Great news about the release date, will order when I can.......I was actually present at the recording of the final disc on the album. It was a charity gig for Muscular Dystrophy attended by Prince Edward !......there were a few guests on stage for the encores including Bruce, Nicko and Janick from Maiden but looks like the tracks they played on have not made it to disc :(

Hi all,

The "Early Stages 82-87" box set is now available to pre order through the shop.

As a thank you for ordering from us Racket Records, Mark and I have come together to give you a free colour A4 poster of Mark's artwork autographed by Steve, Pete, Ian, Mark and myself,

all the details on the 6 CD's are on the shop entry.

I've kept the price down to £38 plus VAT which comes in just short of £45 with tax for those of you in the UK and most of Europe,

the albums will be sent out in a dedicated cardboard CD box with the posters sent separately.

I sincerely appreciate your support on this

all the best
